Select dome cameras also feature vandal-resistant design to prevent tampering. All of our wired cameras and wireless WiFi cameras can be used as standalone without the need for an internet connection.

The Best IP Camera
Our professional grade IP security cameras allow customers to see fantastic detail from anywhere in the world using their smartphone or computer. When compared to home consumer cameras from Amazon or Big-box Stores, our cameras produce the best picture quality.
Wireless Cameras
Our business and home WiFi cameras use the latest WiFi security protocols to allow easy connection to a WiFi router or WiFi NVR. You can even mix wireless and wired cameras to record to a NVR.
4K Ultra HD
The high quality image sensor inside our 4K security cameras produce incredibly detailed security footage - day and night. Built for use with a NVR, NAS or as a Webcam for standalone use, our cameras provide flexibility for use in applications beyond home or business security. It is even easy to set up a 4K Live Stream camera of an event without the need of a dedicated PC to YouTube Live without any monthly charges.

DIY PoE Camera Installation
Easily connect our PoE cameras to a plug-and-play NVR with a single network Ethernet cable using Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology.
Video Reviews
Unlike our competitors who use deceptive marketing videos with stock footage to market their products, we take the time to showcase what you can expect from our cameras. Watch our video samples that review footage recorded directly from each camera to show exactly the quality of footage the camera sees.
Which Resolution Should You Buy?
CCTV Camera World offers Network Cameras in resolutions ranging from 1080P (aka 2 Megapixels) to 12MP. Although 4K is considered Ultra HD, you can even go beyond 4K and attain even more detail with 12 Megapixels. For convenience we have grouped 8MP and 12MP cameras together in our 4K surveillance camera selection.
The image above compares the relative size of the picture produced by Avalonix Premium Series cameras of different resolutions. While it is not true to scale, the comparison is meant to illustrate that as camera resolution increases, the picture frame size and clarity increases as well.
When choosing which camera you should buy, it is important to ask yourself how far you would like to see facial detail? After extensive testing, we have developed the simple table below that explains the extent of possible facial capture among different camera resolutions.
Max Face Capture Distance In Daylight
| Resolution | Max Distance |
| D1 / 960H | 10ft |
| 720P | 15ft |
| 1080P | 25ft |
| 3MP | 35ft |
| 4MP | 45ft |
| 8MP 4K | 55ft |
| 12MP | 70ft |
To provide a visual perspective to the above table, we developed the CCTV Camera World Camera Matrix. We tested the different camera resolutions we offer at 10ft distance increments from the camera to determine how well they can capture facial detail. Our Camera Matrix serves as an important reference when choosing which resolution IP security camera you should buy.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are IP Cameras?
Also known as PoE Cameras or network cameras, they are self-contained recording devices that can be used with a Network Video Recorder for long-term storage of video footage. While they are mainly used as surveillance cameras, they can also be used for other purposes such as a professional live stream feed to YouTube Live without the need for a PC. Wired network cameras connect to NVRs and computer networks using network cable, and wireless cameras connect using WiFi.
How to install IP Security Cameras?
Installation difficulty depends on the style or shape of the model. Bullet cameras and Turret shaped cameras are easy to install to walls and ceilings. Dome cameras can be installed directly to ceilings or eaves and require a wall bracket for wall installations. Connecting the camera to an NVR is easy: connect one end of an ethernet network cable to the camera and the other end of the cable to the NVR. Allow the camera a couple of minutes to power on and voila! It’s really that easy when using plug-and-play technology common within cameras and NVR of the same brand. We sell three different brands you can choose from depending on your budget.
Can IP Network Cameras work without the internet?
It is a common misconception that network based cameras require the internet. The Internet is only needed for remote viewing over the web. Otherwise, cameras connect directly over ethernet cabling to a NVR and from a Closed Circuit System.
Do IP cameras need WiFi?
Only wireless WiFi cameras need WiFi to connect to the NVR or a computer network. WiFi is also needed if you want to watch a camera system using a mobile phone or tablet connected to the same WiFi router as the cameras.
